< Deuteronomy 15 >

1 At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.
Kumapeto kwa zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri zilizonse, muzikhululukirana ngongole.
2 And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called YHWH 's release.
Zimenezi muzichita motere: wobwereketsa aliyense adzakhululukira ngongole imene anabwereketsa kwa Mwisraeli mnzake. Iye asadzafunenso kuti Mwisraeli mnzakeyo kapena mʼbale wake amubwezere chifukwa nthawi ya Ambuye yokhululukirana ngongole yalengezedwa.
3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;
Mukhoza kulonjerera ngongole kwa mlendo, koma mukhululukire ngongole ina iliyonse imene mʼbale wanu ali nayo.
4 Save when there shall be no poor among you; for YHWH shall greatly bless thee in the land which YHWH thy Elohim giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it:
Komabe pasadzakhale wosauka pakati panu chifukwa Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakudalitsani kwambiri mʼdziko limene adzakupatsani kuti likhale lanu ngati cholowa chanu.
5 Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of YHWH thy Elohim, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.
Adzakudalitsani pokhapokha ngati mudzamveradi Yehova Mulungu wanu posunga ndi kutsatira malamulo onse amene ndikukupatsani lero.
6 For YHWH thy Elohim blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.
Pakuti Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakudalitsani monga analonjeza, ndipo inu mudzabwereketsa chuma kwa mitundu yambiri ya anthu koma inu simudzabwereka kwa aliyense. Mudzalamulira mitundu yambiri ya anthu koma inuyo palibe amene adzakulamulireni.
7 If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which YHWH thy Elohim giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:
Ngati pali mʼbale wanu wina wosauka mu mzinda wanu wina uliwonse mʼdziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani, musawumitse mitima yanu kapena kuchita kaligwiritsa kwa mʼbale wanu wosaukayo.
8 But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth.
Koma mukhale ofewa manja ndipo mumukongoze mʼbale wanu momasuka pa chilichonse chimene akufuna.
9 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry unto YHWH against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
Musayesere ndi pangʼono pomwe kusunga maganizo oyipa awa mu mtima mwanu: “Chaka chachisanu ndi chiwiri, chaka chokhululukirana ngongole, chayandikira,” kuti musaonetse mtima woyipa kwa mʼbale wanu wosauka nʼkusamupatsa chilichonse. Iye angadzakunenereni inu mlandu kwa Ambuye, ndipo mudzapezeka wochimwa.
10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing YHWH thy Elohim shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.
Mumupatse iye mowolowamanja ndipo muchite zimenezi mosasungira kanthu kumtima. Tsono chifukwa cha zimenezi, Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakudalitsani pa ntchito zanu zonse ndi pa chilichonse chimene mukhudza.
11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
Anthu osauka sadzatha mʼdziko lanu. Chomwecho ndikukulamulani kuti mukhale ofewa manja kwa abale anu ndi kwa osauka, osowa mʼdziko mwanu.
12 And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
Ngati mʼbale wanu wamwamuna kapena wamkazi adzigulitsa yekha kwa inu, nakugwirirani ntchito zaka zisanu ndi chimodzi, muzimumasula mʼchaka cha chisanu ndi chiwiri.
13 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:
Ndipo pamene mumumasula, musangomulola apite chimanjamanja.
14 Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith YHWH thy Elohim hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
Mumupatse mowolowamanja zochokera pa ziweto zanu, kopunthira tirigu ndi kopsinyira vinyo. Inu mumupatse iye monga Yehova Mulungu wanu wakudalitsirani.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and YHWH thy Elohim redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to day.
Kumbukirani kuti munali akapolo mʼdziko la Igupto ndipo Yehova Mulungu wanu anakupulumutsani. Nʼchifukwa chake ndikukupatsani lamulo ili lero lino.
16 And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because he is well with thee;
Koma ngati kapoloyo akuwuzani kuti, “Ine sindikufuna kumasulidwa,” chifukwa choti wakukondani inuyo pamodzi ndi banja lanu ndiponso kuti kwamukomera iyeyo kuti azikhalabe nanu,
17 Then thou shalt take an aul, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.
pamenepo muzitenga chobowolera chachitsulo ndi kubowola khutu lake pa chitseko, ndipo mukatero adzakhala kapolo wanu moyo wake wonse. Mdzakazi wanu muzimuchitanso chimodzimodzi.
18 It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee; for he hath been worth a double hired servant to thee, in serving thee six years: and YHWH thy Elohim shall bless thee in all that thou doest.
Musaone ngati chopweteka kumasula wantchito wanu, chifukwa ntchito imene wayigwira pa zaka zisanu ndi chimodzi zimenezi ndi yopindula kawiri pa ntchito imene akanagwira waganyu chabe. Ndipo Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakudalitsani pa chilichonse chimene mukuchita.
19 All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto YHWH thy Elohim: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.
Mumupatulire Yehova Mulungu wanu choyamba kubadwa chachimuna chilichonse pa ngʼombe ndi nkhosa zanu. Musamazigwiritse ntchito ngʼombe zoyamba kubadwa kapena kumeta nkhosa zoyamba kubadwa.
20 Thou shalt eat it before YHWH thy Elohim year by year in the place which YHWH shall choose, thou and thy household.
Inuyo ndi banja lanu, chaka chilichonse muzizidya zimenezi pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pa malo amene Iye adzasankhe.
21 And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto YHWH thy Elohim.
Ngati chiweto chili ndi chilema monga kulumala kapena chosaona, kapena ngati chili ndi cholakwika chachikulu chilichonse, musachipereke nsembe kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
22 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean person shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
Muzichidya mʼmizinda yanuyanu. Onse odetsedwa monga mwa mwambo ndi oyeretsedwa omwe akhoza kuchidya monga akudya gwape kapena mbawala.
23 Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.
Koma musadye magazi ake. Muwathire pansi ngati madzi.
